This second startup weekend allowed people to form their own ad-hoc teams; essentially,
people pitched their ideas and tried to cajole others into collaborating. Since they didn't try to shove people
into one idea ( TheFollyOfCrowds ), more people returned on Saturday and Sunday than during ssw1. Minor improvements
to the process would include:

Keeping sponsors brief -- we're here to hack

No PA system -- think of better ways to persuade us

Give each idea proposer a flag and have people rally around the idea they like

Set up a central SaturdayHouse like coffee klatsch for people who need a break

Things for next time: public subversion server, a payment account (paypal, amazon FPS, etc.), a slicehost,
and a deployed google appengine with web.py.

BrianDorsey, AlvinLiang, and I worked on How to get ESPN360.com,
which seeks to help the 60% of broadband users in the US that can't access ESPN 360 because their ISP hasn't
set up an agreement with ESPN (wired article).
We have to set up an Amazon Flexible Payment System account to collect promises to pay from people, then
commence operation ESPNAgitProp. ;)

Thanks for input and help from RyanKabir, SarahNovotny, and most everyone who hit our table.
